Only givens are Sobers and Hutton.

Lindwall has to be next, he was deemed the GOAT pacer at this time.

Trueman set the world record and between Pollock and Miller, should go Miller

Absurd that I'm the only one to vote Davidson fwiw. 10 to Lindwall and 1 to Davidson?

I haven’t voted - like I said, I view Davidson as a superior bowler but yeah Trueman has volume and I’m iffy when looking at particular time periods.
